Drawing Circles

reflections of you

float upon the still water

lightning dances in the clouds

distant thunder rolls over the hills

soon the rain will fall

stealing across the valley

to draw circles on the lake

distorting the illusion

The Restless Wind

Tether my soul

to the restless wind

that heeds

no light

nor dark

that I may hark

the dawn of verse

as it's born

rippling through

the grass

that I may witness

the golden rays

of a sonnet

upon the wings

of a gull

and hear 

the breathless lull

of poetry

as the sun sets

on the sea

The Moon

Spinning Round and Around

Reaching the meadow
With her hand on her heart
To ease her gasping breath
She pauses a moment
To take in the view
Smiling  to herself she
Spreads out her arms
Throws back her head
And begins to twirl
Round and around
Twirling round
Whirling round
Laughing
Round and around
With eyes closed
She whirls
She twirls
the wind in her hair
The meadow grass
Sweet in her nostrils
Giddy with memories
Breathlessly happy
She falls to the ground
Rolling onto her back
She watches as the
Blue sky wraps itself in
Fluffy white clouds
Her world spinning
Wildly above her
She begins to float
Aimlessly through
the last Chapter
Of her childhood
